Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018011567A1] The present invention provides a method of mineralisation of carbon dioxide. The method comprises forming an alkaline aqueous solution containing carbonate anions by dissolving the carbon dioxide and an alkali such as ammonia in water. Next, the method comprises mixing the alkaline aqueous solution with a water source (such as a connate/formation brine or produced water or industrial waste waters or re-constituted mineral-bearing waters) containing magnesium and calcium cations. A first product (e.g. PCC) containing calcium cations and carbonate anions is precipitated in a first precipitation step at a first pH (e.g. around pH7.5) and then a second product (e.g. nesquehonite (NQ) a type of PMC) containing magnesium cations and carbonate anions is precipitated in a second precipitation step at a second, higher pH e.g. around pH 9.5.
